Blood from Daming

Chapter 290

Li Chunmao, the magistrate of Shuntian Prefecture, took his servants and left in a short while. The officials of the Chengnan Bingma Division saw that the big bosses of Dongchang, Jinyiwei, and Shuntianfu had all left. It was their turn to arrest people, but unfortunately there was no chance. Almost all those who died were sent to the hospital, and the dozen or so people standing there did not dare to offend Shuntian Mansion. We Chengnan Bingma Si, a small shoulder, can't stand it, and we don't have the heart to go into private houses to search for people. The leading officials didn't With the first yell, the soldiers of Chengnan Bingmasi were like ducks, and hundreds of them ran away in a while.

Only the member of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, Shi Gongsheng, who was sitting on the ground, was so angry. This time he brought people from the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, but it seemed that he was not in his position to seek his own affairs. Almost all the things that could be moved were taken away by those yamen who left, and the rest was probably hard stubble that could not be moved. Shi Gongsheng sighed, and with the support of his servants, he climbed crookedly into his official sedan chair, and took The guards of the Ministry of Punishments retreated listlessly.

The large-scale gang fight in front of Xue's house shocked the capital, especially the civil servants in the imperial court. The Xue family is too vicious. They are almost ruined by everyone. How dare they attack the students in the capital? It is tolerable or unbearable for the scholar to attack. This time, he must smash the Xue family to pieces, and then step on it a few times, so that the Xue family will never turn over.

Officials with similar tastes communicated with each other. Scholars who went to Xue's house to cause trouble accounted for half of the total number, and nearly 200 people were beaten to the ground, accounting for [-] people. Many of them may be disabled. It is estimated that tomorrow At least half of the seats in the Taixue lectures were empty, and the remaining dozens of people who were less injured were also divided up by the major yamen in the capital. Write a memorial to the emperor to severely punish the Xue family for this injury and revenge for the scribes who died in the "Xinghua Restaurant" last time.

Emperor Tianqi is making a model of a big ship. This is a very big ship model. According to Emperor Tianqi, after the size is enlarged, the big ship can hold all the concubines, concubines, court ladies and eunuchs in the entire palace. Live a carefree and happy life. All the maids and eunuchs in the palace knew about it, and hid in the corner, giggling and laughing. How could such a thing be possible? Normal people know that it cannot be created, even if it is created. Put it somewhere.

But if Xue Yun finds out about it, maybe Xue Yun will be surprised, and then he will really worship Emperor Tianqi. God, this idea is either Noah’s Ark or an aircraft carrier. Xue Yun may ask, Your Majesty, did you come here through time travel? If yes, we have found a bosom friend.

Emperor Tianqi's carpentry career was in full swing. Wei Zhongxian and Eunuch Wei arrived at the royal craftsman's room and whispered to Emperor Tianqi, "Your Majesty, something happened in front of Xue's house."

Emperor Tianqi was taken aback, put down the planer in his hand and asked, "What's going on here?"

Wei Zhongxian told Emperor Tianqi about the large-scale fighting and riot that took place in front of the Xue Mansion, but he helped the people in the Xue Mansion cover up a lot of details. After hearing this, Emperor Tianqi's face became green. When the cabinet members were summoned privately, they also mentioned asking them to restrain the literati in the capital not to harass Xue's mansion. Unexpectedly, these Tai students became worse and refused to listen to the court's call, and privately gathered people to gather in front of Xue's mansion to make trouble.

Emperor Tianqi circled around the royal craftsman's room for a few times, and suddenly stopped and asked, "Big Companion, do you think the members of the Xue family will cause trouble in the middle?"

Wei Zhongxian's heart is still biased towards Xue Yun's side, so Wei Zhongxian said to Emperor Tianqi: "Your Majesty, according to the information from Dongchang and Jinyiwei, those people who bought cheap food at Xue's house gathered around Xue's house. It happened that the scholars were parading. It was said that a woman and child were injured, and suddenly a large-scale fight broke out."

Emperor Tianqi asked: "Ban, is the rice from Xue's family very cheap?"

Wei Zhongxian replied: "Your Majesty, the price of the Xue family's grain is not cheap in the capital. It's just that the Xue family is an experienced businessman. It’s a lot cheaper.”

Emperor Tianqi thought for a while and said: "So the Xue family is very honest in doing things. Alas, I punished the Xue family this time, but I didn't expect that many people will suffer. Companion, this time the Xue family's family is very honest. The matter is quite troublesome, and it won't be long before those ministers will make trouble with me again."

Just at this moment, a eunuch passed the news outside the imperial craftsman's room, and he had to be seen by Emperor Tianqi. Emperor Tianqi was furious: "Let those flies go away, and stop buzzing in my ears."

Wei Zhongxian was a little surprised that no matter whether he was around or not, the eunuchs below did not dare to deliver letters to the emperor without seeing him first. The eunuch on duty today told him that the eunuch was going crazy. Could it be that he wanted to ask for credit in front of the emperor to reward him, but my father-in-law did not This is impossible with the emperor.

Wei Zhongxian was drumming in his heart. Could it be that something big happened. If there is no big thing, I don’t want to kill this dead eunuch. Wei Zhongxian completely forgot that he was also a eunuch, so he whispered to Emperor Tianqi: "Your Majesty, slaves go to greet the people below." , so as not to disturb His Majesty's interest."

Emperor Tianqi nodded and turned around to get the stamp and mallet to do some carving. Wei Zhongxian took the opportunity to leave the imperial craftsman's room. What are you doing?"

The messenger eunuch was running around in a hurry, when he heard Eunuch Wei's voice, he was frightened out of his wits. With a "thud", the eunuch passed on his knees on the ground and called for Eunuch Wei to spare his life, saying that he had an urgent memorial to report to the imperial craftsman. Fang took a look.

Wei Zhongxian saw that the eunuch was sincere and frightened towards him, and he was quite satisfied with being careful, so he said kindly, "Little brat, if you have any news, please bring it up."

The eunuch passed the urgent memorial from Liaodong in a hurry, Wei Zhongxian took it in his hands, and slowly opened his hands to look at it. Seeing this, Wei Zhongxian's face suddenly turned livid, and he stood there for a long time without putting down the memorial, hesitating whether to It's not about taking the memorial and showing it to Emperor Tianqi.

Wei Zhongxian calmed down and found that the eunuch was still kneeling there, so he said: "Go down."

The eunuch who passed on the news kowtowed to Wei Zhongxian as if he was amnesty, got up and limped to the side of the main hall, Wei Zhongxian turned around and entered the royal craftsman's room with a stampede.

Emperor Tianqi was carving a dragon-shaped pattern on the bow, Wei Zhongxian stood in the room lightly when he saw Emperor Tianqi was carving objects, Emperor Tianqi seemed to feel that Wei Zhongxian entered the room and asked: "Brother, what's the matter. "

Wei Zhongxian knew that this matter could not be concealed, so he whispered to Emperor Tianqi: "Your Majesty, something big happened in Liaodong."

Emperor Tianqi panicked when he heard Wei Zhongxian's words, and he poked the dragon's head with such a shake of his hand. A deep mark was drawn across the eyes of the dragon head. Emperor Tianqi saw that there was something wrong with his excellent carving, Annoyed, he grabbed the big ship model and wanted to smash it down, but Emperor Tianqi hesitated for a while and put it down lightly, then turned around and said to Wei Zhongxian: "Brother, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Wei Zhongxian was frightened by Emperor Tianqi's performance just now, knowing that the timing he chose was not good, which upset Emperor Tianqi, now that Emperor Tianqi asked, Wei Zhongxian had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Your Majesty, Master Sun of Liaodong Economic Strategy Six hundred li hastened the memorial, and the Jianlu established the capital in Shenyang, Liaodong, named it Shengjing, and the country name continued to be Houjin."

After listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Emperor Tianqi's hands and feet were cold, and he woke up after a long time and asked, "Dear companion, didn't the peace talks between the two countries at the beginning of the month mean that Shenyang can also be returned to my Ming Dynasty? Why did Jianlu build his capital in Shenyang? What the hell is going on? What's going on, pass it on, pass it on to the cabinet to see me."

Wei Zhongxian saw that Emperor Tianqi had seriously lost his temper, and he himself was unwilling to provoke Emperor Tianqi again on this point of view. Since the emperor wanted to see the cabinet ministers, let them follow suit.

Wei Zhongxian immediately went to notify the cabinet ministers to see the emperor, but the young eunuch went out alone for a short time, but came back with another eunuch. The eunuch knelt down and reported to Wei Zhongxian: "I want to report to my father-in-law, the cabinet ministers are already here. Waiting outside the palace to be summoned by the emperor."

Wei Zhongxian was delighted when he heard it. There was a good show to watch today. What the emperor and the cabinet ministers wanted to discuss were two irrelevant matters. Looking at the anger of Emperor Tianqi today, I guess these cabinet ministers are going to suffer. Now, Wei Zhongxian also wants to use the emperor's hand to strike down these increasingly arrogant cabinet ministers.

Wei Zhongxian was dissatisfied with the cabinet ministers because the cabinet ministers secretly returned Ba Duli and Li Yongfang to the proposals and missions behind the emperor's back and himself. This seriously challenged Wei Zhongxian's bottom line of power. This time the cabinet surrounded himself Acting with the emperor, God knows what deviant things they will do next time.

Wei Zhongxian accompanied Emperor Tianqi in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but Emperor Tianqi's anger didn't seem to dissipate much. Emperor Tianqi sat on the dragon chair for a while before signaling Wei Zhongxian to send the cabinet ministers to see him. Wei Zhongxian ordered the little eunuch beside him to summon the cabinet ministers to come.

After a while, Gu Bingqian, the chief assistant of the cabinet, Wei Guangwei, the second assistant of the cabinet, Huang Liji, a scholar of Jianji Temple, Shi Fenglai, a scholar of Zhongji Temple, Feng Quan, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, and Zhang Ruitu, a cabinet minister, filed in and saluted the emperor. , just stand on these two sides.

But Emperor Tianqi kept a cold face and said nothing, the courtiers thought what happened to the emperor today, was it because the Xue family was unhappy, or was something happened in the Liubaili Special Report that was passed into the palace not long ago .
